Extra Info:
The architectural boat tours on the Chicago River are of the most popular tourist attractions in Chicago. This boat has just passed under the Michigan Avenue bridge with portions of the Wrigley Building and other skyscrapers in the background.

Right on theme - totally tourism - major points for that. I like the way you included the view of what the tourists are paying for. imo it is a little washed out & has a slight tilt to the right. I would prefer to see more water under & in front of the the boat. Minor quibbles - good shot overall & in my t5. Edited on Jul 31, 2010

This wonderful tourism capture well framed and composed, is hurt for me by the off vertical and probably off horizontal framing which makes me feel a little queasy. To me I sense the river floating downhill and the buildings leaning to the right. I would have rotated a bit to vertical and used a perspective tool as in GIMP to stretch the frame into vertical and horizontal if required. Somehow the USM to me doesn't look like it helped the general overall lack of definition leaving me to wonder if this was perhaps a little off focus when taken.

See what you liked here ..... a nice combination of elements. Perhaps a little busy for me with the other boat and the buildings on the right.Edited on Jul 31, 2010
